Up next, we have a new area. The main town is called “Momijigaoka” (モミジヶ丘) and then there’s a temple a few maps over called “Honnouji,” (本能寺) or “The Temple of Instinct.” Honnouji doesn’t seem to be available yet, as I cannot access it. However, I have given a tour of the Momijigaoka area. You can watch it here :

There’s also a new system added. More or less, it’s Aswan reskinned. Even so, it’s very interesting and very fun. It can be extremely difficult as well. In the “Great Battle of Sengoku,” you fight Oda Nobunaga’s invading forces in multiple modes. I have also recorded a video of that, which you can view here :

I have not yet participated in the party-play portion of it, but if I do, I’ll get someone to record it (since I can’t – it’ll be way too laggy for me).

That’s all I have for now. Hayato will come out on the 25th of this month, so stay tuned for that! I will be sure to put out videos of Hayato and may even join Zelkova by live streaming some of it. I do not know if I can live stream, however.

I don’t think it will, to be honest. Like with the Tamer and Huntsman professions, it doesn’t seem like something that will be extended to other versions of MapleStory. But hey… I could always be wrong.

I was being sarcastic to show my disinterest in part one. Nothing worthwhile will be coming out until the 26th.

They should’ve release Hayato with part 1, and Kanna with part 2. But dem masochistic Japanese just love their delayed gratification. And that’s terrible.

Non-expiring familiars, as well as the profession tied to them, still are. GMS only got a nerfed version that, while helpful, isn’t as good. Not to mention the fact that the spirit weapon system, which some familiar abilities tie into, wasn’t brought over either, making some familiars practically worthless.

Suffice it to say, the only versions worth playing are KMS and JMS. Sadly, DAT LANGUAGE BARRIER is discriminatory to those not born in their native lands. And that’s terrible.

To hell with national identity. Every country should just learn and use english. Then the biggest problem plaguing the modern world, people’s inability to understand one another, is solved in one fell swoop.

But until global society grows a brain, sadly, us foreigners will be stuck with a cheap American knockoff of a higher quality asian product. Because irony.

Level 150 equips.. First I was excited about this but after all it’s a big FAIL I assume you saw how they look.. Same overall, hat, gloves, shoes, cape for ALL jobs except warrior and magician (those two are looking different from other classes but they both look same)
